14th May 2012

Training is up and running in the Convent Primary School for the last term.

Newport B.N.S. had hoped to commence the junior league last Thursday but weather conditions forced a cancellation.

Mr. Skehane and Mr. McCormack hope to commence both the junior and senior leagues this coming week.

The annual school tournament is due to take place on June 21st.

Joe Floyd is keeping the flag flying in Birdhill N.S. and no doubt Birdhill are preparing to defend the title they won last year.

Support our girls

The U14 camogie team who are representing Tipp in this year's Féile na nGael in Dublin in July are looking for all G.A.A. supporters to come to Bingo in Newport Community Centre on May 22nd. They need 100 extra people to attend that night in order to make a substantial sum which will go towards their trip. School Coaches might put this date in their diary.

Intermediate Hurling

Congratulations to the Intermediate hurlers who got their championship campaign off to a successful start with victory against Ballinahinch last Saturday. Well done to all involved.
